You can now shut down the PC, unplug the power cord and physically install your modem per the instructions found in the next section “Physically Installing your MultiModem”. After the hardware installations, Windows will detect the ZPX as installed and complete the process. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide 7 Chapter 2 - Installation Physically Installing your MultiModem • • • Remove the cover from your system as instructed in the system manual. Before handling the MultiModem ZPX, discharge any static in your body by touching a piece of grounded metal such as the computer chassis. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the release of stored static electricity that can damage electrical circuitry or components. Static electricity is often stored in your body, and discharged when you come in contact with an object of a different potential. • Perform the procedure below described in this section only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal ground screw (lug). If you are installing a MT9234ZPX-PCIe board in a low profile machine, you will need to change the mounting bracket to the low profile mounting bracket. • • • • • • 8 Installing the MultiModem requires you to open your system. Please consult your system manual in addition to the following instructions. Turn off your system and unplug it. Failure to do so may result in damage to both the MultiModem and your system. Do not turn on the system until the instructions tell you to do so. Select an empty PCI expansion slot. Remove the expansion slot cover and save the retaining screw. Before handling the MultiModem, discharge static in your body by touching a piece of bare metal on the chassis. Carefully remove the MultiModem from its antistatic bag, handling it only by the mounting bracket and edges. Do not touch the gold-plated connectors along the bottom edge. Look at the system’s main board to determine either PCI or Express connector. Place the MultiModem directly above the expansion slot and gently, but firmly, push it into the connector until the card’s retaining bracket is flush against the system chassis. Fasten the retaining bracket to the system chassis with the screw saved in step 4. Replace the system cover. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide Chapter 2 - Installation Make the External Connections Now connect the MultiModem to the telephone line and, optionally, to your telephone. For voice mail or speakerphone use, you can also connect it to a microphone and an external speaker, headphone, or sound card. The microphone can be used for recording answering machine messages or for speakerphone use. The speaker or headphone can be used for playing back messages or as a speakerphone. PHONE PH ONE LINE L INE MIC IN MIC Optional Voice LINE OUT L INE Line Connection Plug one end of the provided telephone cable into the modem’s LINE jack, and the other end into a telephone wall jack. This is the only required connection. Note: The LINE jack is not interchangeable with the PHONE jack. Do not plug the phone into the LINE jack or the line cable into the PHONE jack. Note: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada impose certain restrictions on equipment connected to public telephone systems. Phone Connection (Optional) If you wish to connect a telephone to the same line as the modem, plug it into the modem’s PHONE jack. Note: The PHONE jack is not interchangeable with the LINE jack. Do not plug the phone into the LINE jack or the line cable into the PHONE jack. Microphone/Headphone Connection (Optional) For voice mail or speakerphone applications, plug an unamplified microphone into the MIC jack. The microphone and headphone should have a stereo 3.58mm (9/64-inch) mini plug. Do not use a monophonic microphone. Sound Card and Speaker Connections (If you have the Voice Option) For voice mail or speakerphone applications, use a 3.58mm (9/64-inch) plug male-to-male stereo patch cord to connect the LINE OUT jack on the modem to the LINE IN jack on your sound card. If your sound card does not have a LINE IN jack, use its MIC jack. This will allow you to hear modem activity whether it is originating or answering a call, or playing a recorded message. If you do not have a sound card, you can plug an amplified speaker into the LINE OUT jack. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide 9 Chapter 2 - Installation Manually Installing Drivers If you choose not to use the Windows Installer or have already physically installed your MultiModem ZPX, the following instructions will guide you through the process of installation for the various Windows operating systems. The MultiModem MT9234ZPX ships with drivers for each of the following operating systems: Windows Server® 2008, Windows® 7, Vista, XP, 2003, 2000 Server, 2000 Advanced Server, and Linux. This chapter describes the installation of these drivers. You may need to configure your modem for your country/region, the procedure for doing this is at the end of this chapter. Installing a device driver modifies your system. For this reason, only the super user (system administrator) is allowed to perform the installation. If you cannot login as administrator, find the person in your organization with this authorization (i.e., password). To begin driver installation, login as administrator. Then proceed with the appropriate installation section in this chapter. Windows Drivers: The MultiModem MT9234ZPX driver must be installed in your computer’s program directory. The Windows drivers are located on the MultiModem MT9234ZPX CD in the Drivers folder. A complete set of drivers for each operating system is organized into Vista-2008-Win7 and XP-2003 with either 32-bit or 64-bit processor. Most users will select either the 32-bit Vista-2008-Win7 or 32-bit XP-2003 drivers. Server users can select either 32-bit or 64-bit depending on their application. For server users to determine whether they have a 32bit or 64-bit operating system, go to Start I All Programs I Accessories I System Tools I Computer and click on the System Properties button. Under System you will see System Type: 64-bit Operating System. Linux Drivers: Linux Operating System drivers are also located on the CD in the Drivers I Linux Folder.

MT9234ZPX User Guide 41 Chapter 2 - Installation Configure the Modem for Your Country Different countries have different requirements for how modems must function. Therefore, before you use your modem, you must configure it to match the defaults of the country/region in which you are using it. You must also do this if you move the modem to another country/region after it has been configured for the first country/region. The modem is set to country, Euro/NAM, with a country code of 52 decimal by default. You can use one of two configuration methods: ● Use the Global Wizard to Configure Your Modem ● Use AT Commands to Configure Your Modem Using the Global Wizard to Configure Your Modem The Global Wizard configuration utility is recommended for computers running Windows 2000 or newer. 1. Insert the MultiModem product CD into the CD-ROM drive. 2. When the splash screen appears, click on Initial Setup & Country Sel button. 3. The Global Wizard page appears, choose either: ● 4. Run Global Wizard from CD. This will not load the program onto your hard drive. or ● Install Global Wizard on the HD. This will install the program onto your hard drive for future use. The Global Wizard dialog box appeared. Click Next. 5. The Global Wizard searches for your modem and identifies it. Click Next. 6. Select the country/region in which the modem will be used. Click Next. 7. Review your country/region choice. If it is correct, click Next to configure the modem. 8. When Global Wizard announces that the parameters have been set, click Finish to exit. Using AT Commands to Configure Your Modem Non-Windows users can configure the modem using AT commands. You must enter these commands in your communication program terminal window. 1. Run your favorite communication program and open the windows terminal window. 2. To configure the modem for a specific country/region, type AT%T19,0,nn, where nn is the country/region code in hexadecimal format, click ENTER. The message OK displays. 3. To verify the change, type ATI9 and click ENTER. The country code is displayed in decimal format, as in this example: Country/Region Euro/NAM AT Command (decimal) AT%T19,0,34 (default) Country code (hexadecimal) 52 A complete list of country/region codes can be found on the Multi-Tech Web site at: http://www.multitech.com/en_US/PRODUCTS/Categories/Device_Networking/global_modems/configuration.asp The Global Modem Country Approvals page displays. On this page you can view approvals, configuration strings and responses by country and product. 42 Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide Chapter 3 – Remote Configuration Chapter 3 – Remote Configuration Remote configuration is a network management tool that allows you to configure the MultiModem anywhere in your network from one location. With password-protected remote configuration, you can issue AT commands to a remote modem for maintenance or troubleshooting as if you were on site. Basic Procedure The following steps are valid regardless of whether the connection is established by the local or the remote MultiTech modem. Note: For this procedure, the remote computer must be running, and a communication program must be ready for a data connection. 1. Establish a data connection with a remote MultiModem. 2. Send three remote configuration escape characters followed by AT and the setup password, and press ENTER. Example: %%%ATMTSMODEM (all capital letters). You have four tries to enter the correct password before being disconnected. If the password is correct, the remote modem responds with OK. 3. Type AT commands to configure the remote modem. 4. When you have finished configuring the remote modem, save the new configuration by typing AT&W0 and pressing ENTER. 5. Type ATO and press ENTER to exit remote configuration. You can now break the connection in the normal way. Setup Multi-Tech modems are shipped with a default setup password (MTSMODEM). Because anyone who has the User Guide knows the default setup password, you should change the password and possibly also the remote configuration escape character. Record your changes for future use. To Change the Setup Password 1. Open a data communications program such as HyperTerminal. 2. To change the password, type AT#S=xxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxxx stands for the password, and then press ENTER. The password can include any keyboard character, and can be up to eight characters long. The modem responds with OK. CAUTION: Passwords are case-sensitive. The next time you enter the password, it must be in the same case as you set it up. 3. The new password is saved automatically. You can now either enter more AT commands or exit the data communications program. The next time you wish to set up the modem, you must use the new password. To Change the Remote Escape Character To further improve security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape character either locally or remotely. The remote configuration escape character is stored in register S9. The factory default is 37, which is the ASCII code for the percent character (%). Setting S9 to 0 (zero) disables remote configuration entirely. CAUTION: If you set S9 to 0 (zero) remotely, you won’t be able to change it back remotely. 1. Establish a remote configuration link with the remote modem as described in “Basic Procedure.” 2. Type ATS9=n, where n is the ASCII code for the new remote configuration escape character, and then press ENTER. 3. Save the new value by typing AT&W and pressing ENTER. Record for future use. 4. Type ATO and press ENTER to exit remote configuration. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide 43 Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting Chapter 4 – Troubleshooting Your modem was thoroughly tested at the factory before it was shipped. If you are unable to make a successful connection, or if you experience data loss or garbled characters during your connection, it is possible that the modem is defective. However, it is more likely that the source of your problem lies elsewhere. The following symptoms are typical of problems you might encounter: ● The modem does not respond to commands. ● The modem cannot connect when dialing. ● The modem disconnects while online. ● The modem cannot connect when answering. ● File transfer is slower than it should be. ● Data is being lost. ● There are garbage characters on the monitor. ● The modem doesn’t work with Caller ID. ● Fax and data software can’t run at the same time. ● The voice functions don’t work. The Modem Does Not Respond to Commands ● Make sure you are issuing the modem commands from data communications software, either manually in terminal mode or automatically by configuring the software. (You cannot send commands to the modem from the DOS prompt.) ● Make sure you are in terminal mode in your data communications program, then type E1 and press ENTER. If you get an OK response from your modem, your connections are good and the problem likely is in the connection setup in your communications software. ● If you don’t get an OK, make sure you have properly configured the port in your communications program. Most legacy (prior to Windows 95) communications programs connect to the COM port when the software loads and remain connected until the program terminates. Some programs can disconnect without exiting the program. If this is the case, try issuing the software’s connection command. If more than one communications program is open, they may conflict with each other. Make sure all other communications programs are closed, and then try to make the connection again. ● Your communication software settings might not match the port the modem is connected to. Make sure the COM port you chose during setup matches the COM port set in your communications software. See Chapter 2 for more information. Another expansion card, such as a sound or game card, might be using the same COM port, memory address, or interrupt request (IRQ) as your modem. See Chapter 2 for information on verifying the configuration for your operating system. Look for conflicts with other devices installed on your computer. Resources are assigned at power-up by the computer’s BIOS. If the resources assigned to the MultiModem conflict with the resources of another device, the resources of the second device have to be changed. Select the port the conflicting device is on and change it to resolve the conflict. If you need to change switches or jumpers on the conflicting device, refer to the device’s documentation. 44 ● If you have another MultiModem, install it and try to make a connection. ● The modem might have a problem beyond the scope of this user guide. If you have another Multi-Tech modem, try swapping modems. If the problem goes away, contact support at https://support.multitech.com for assistance. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting The Modem Cannot Connect When Dialing Reasons why the MultiModem may fail to connect include: ● lack of a physical connection to the telephone line. ● a wrong dial tone. ● a busy signal. ● a wrong number. ● no modem at the other end. ● a faulty modem, computer, or software at the other end. ● incompatibility between modems ● poor line conditions. You can narrow the list of possibilities by using extended result codes. Extended result codes are enabled by default. If they have been disabled, include V1X4 in the modem’s initialization string, or in terminal mode enter ATV1X4 and press ENTER. When you dial again, the modem reports the call’s progress. ● If the modem reports NO DIALTONE, check that the modem’s telephone line cable is connected to both the modem’s LINE jack (not the PHONE jack) and the telephone wall jack. If the cable looks secure, try replacing it. If that doesn’t work, the problem might be in your building’s telephone installation. To test the building installation, check for a dial tone by connecting a standard telephone set to the line in place of the modem. If you hear a dial tone, your modem might be installed behind a corporate phone system (PBX) with an internal dial tone that sounds different from the normal dial tone. In that case, the modem might not recognize the dial tone and might treat it as an error. Check with your PBX personnel or the PBX system manual to see if you can change the internal dial tone. If you can’t, change your modem’s initialization string to replace X4 with X3, which will cause the modem to ignore dial tones (note, however, that X3 is not allowed in some countries, such as France and Spain). ● If the modem reports BUSY, the other number might be busy. Try again later. BUSY can also indicate that you failed to add a 9, prefix to the phone number if you must dial 9 for an outside line. If you must dial 9 to get an outside line, the easiest way to dial it automatically using legacy software is to include it in the modem’s dial prefix, e.g., ATDT9,. Note the comma, which inserts a pause before the number is dialed. By inserting 9, into the dial prefix, you do not have to include it in each directory entry. To change the dial prefix in Windows HyperTerminal, select Connect from the Call menu, click Dialing Properties, and type 9 in the local and long distance boxes. ● If the modem reports NO ANSWER, the other system has failed to go off-hook, or you might have dialed a wrong number. Check the number. ● If the modem reports NO CARRIER, the phone was answered at the other end, but no connection was made. You might have dialed a wrong number, and a person answered instead of a computer, or you might have dialed the correct number but the other computer or software was turned off or faulty. Check the number and try again, or try calling another system to make sure your modem is working. Also, try calling the number on your telephone. If you hear harsh sounds, then there is a modem at the other end. In that case, the modems might be having problems negotiating because of incompatibilities or line noise. Try the call again, connecting at a lower speed by setting register S37 to a lower rate (for example, by typing ATS37=11 in the terminal window and pressing ENTER). ● Poor line conditions can also affect the connection. When using V.34 or V.32 client-to-client connections in poor conditions, setting S38=0 may result in better performance. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide 45 Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting The Modem Disconnects While Online ● If you have Call Waiting on the same phone line as your modem, it can interrupt your connection when someone tries to call you. If you have Call Waiting, disable it before each call. In most telephone areas in North America, you can disable Call Waiting by preceding the telephone number with *70 (but first check with your local telephone company). You can automatically disable Call Waiting by including the disabling code in the modem’s dial prefix (e.g., ATDT*70,—note the comma, which inserts a pause before the number is dialed). For example, in Windows select Start | Settings | Control Panel, and then Modems. In the Modems Properties dialog box, select Multi-Tech MT9234ZPX-UPCI, and then click Dialing Properties. Check This location has call waiting, and then select the correct code for your phone service. ● If you have extension phones on the same line as your modem, you or someone else can interrupt the connection by picking up another phone. If this is a frequent problem, disconnect the extension phones before using the modem, or install another phone line especially for the modem. ● Check that the phone cord between the modem’s LINE jack and the wall jack is undamaged and firmly connected to both. ● You might have had a poor connection because of line conditions or the problem might have originated on the other end of the line. Try again. ● Your ISP might have hung up on you because of lack of activity on your part or because you exceeded your time limit for the day. Try again. The Modem Cannot Connect When Answering ● Autoanswer might be disabled. Turn on autoanswer in your communications program or send the command ATS0=1 (ATS0=2 if you have Caller ID service) to your modem in terminal mode. ● The application should supply DTR. The default DTR Control command (&D2) inhibits autoanswer. To enable autoanswer, change DTR Control to &D0, and make sure &Q0, &Q5, or &Q6 is also set. For more information, see the &D command in the AT Commands Reference Guide. File Transfer Is Slower Than It Should Be 46 ● If you are using a slow transfer protocol, such as Xmodem, try Zmodem or Ymodem/G instead. ● Is your line noisy? If there is static on your line, the modem has to resend many blocks of data to ensure accuracy. You must have a clean line for maximum speed. ● If you are downloading a compressed file with MNP 5 hardware compression enabled, try disabling data compression. The transfer may be marginally slower with data compression enabled, because hardware data compression cannot compress a file already compressed by an archiving program. ● Does your Internet service provider (ISP) use the same 56K protocol as your modem? The default setting of your modem is to connect using either the V.92 or the V.90 protocol, depending on which one the ISP’s modem is using. If your ISP uses the V.90 protocol, the maximum speed you will be able to upload at is 33,600 bps. Check with your ISP to see which protocols it supports. ● Are you trying to send a file to another client modem? If so, then your maximum possible connect speed is 33,600. You can upload at speeds greater than 33,600 bps only when connected to an ISP that supports the V.92 protocol. ● Try entering the I11 command in command mode after disconnecting and before a reset to display information about the last connection, making a screen print of the connection statistics, and checking for parameters that might be unacceptable. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting Data Is Being Lost ● If you are using data compression, set the serial port baud rate to two to six times faster than the data rate. ● Make sure the flow control method you selected in your software matches the method selected in the modem (see AT commands &K and \Q.) ● Enter the I11 command in command mode and before the modem is reset to display information about the last connection. Then make a screen print of the connection statistics, and look for unacceptable parameters. To display information about the present configuration, you must use the escape sequence, +++, to ensure command mode while still on line. To return to on line mode, set ATO. There Are Garbage Characters on the Monitor ● Your computer and the remote computer might be set to different word lengths, stop bits, or parities. If you have connected at 8-N-1, try changing to 7-E-1, or vice-versa, using your communication software. ● You might be experiencing line noise. Enable error correction, if it is disabled, or hang up and call again; you might get a better connection the second time. ● At speeds above 2400 bps, the remote modem might not use the same transmission or error correction standards as your modem. Try connecting at a slower speed or disabling error correction. (With no error correction, however, line noise can cause garbage characters.). ● Enter the I11 command in command mode and before the modem is reset to display information about the last connection. Then make a screen print of the connection statistics, and look for unacceptable parameters. To display information about the present configuration, you must use the escape sequence, +++, to ensure command mode while still on line. To return to on line mode, set ATO. The Modem Doesn’t Work with Caller ID ● Caller ID information is transmitted between the first and second rings, so if autoanswer is turned off (S0=0) or if the modem is set to answer after only one ring (S0=1), the modem will not receive Caller ID information. Check your initialization string, and if necessary change it to set the modem to answer after the second ring (S0=2). ● Make sure that you have Caller ID service from your telephone company. Fax and Data Software Can’t Run at the Same Time ● Communication devices can be accessed by only one application at a time. In Windows 2000 and higher, you can have data and fax communication applications open at the same time, but they cannot use the same modem at the same time. The Voice Functions Don’t Work ● There are several tests that you can perform to verify the voice circuits of the MultiModem. First, make sure all connecting cables—telephone, microphone, and speaker—are undamaged and firmly connected to the correct jacks. Then retry whatever action was not working. If the problem persists, try the voice mail test; if that doesn’t work, and if you have a microphone and speaker connected to the MultiModem, try the loopback and speakerphone tests, which do not require special software. Voice Mail Test ● Test the MultiModem’s voice function set up the MultiModem for voice mail. Have an acquaintance call and leave a message, and then play it back. If your modem does not play sound files in voice mode, go to Windows Control Panel and double-click the Multimodem icon. Under the Audio tab, select Modem Wave Driver as your preferred device for both playback and recording, then try again. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide 47 Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting Loopback Test 1. Connect a microphone and speaker to the MultiModem. To avoid feedback, make sure the microphone and speaker are well separated; better yet, use a headphone instead of a speaker. 2. Select Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and click HyperTerminal. 3. Click Cancel in the Connection Description dialog box. 4. In the HyperTerminal terminal window, type AT&&S and press ENTER. This command causes input from the microphone to be looped back to the speaker. 5. Speak into the microphone; you should hear your voice on the speaker or headphone. 6. Type ATZ and press ENTER to reset the modem. Speakerphone Test (with voice option) 1. Connect a microphone and speaker to the MultiModem. 2. Select Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and click HyperTerminal. 3. Click Cancel in the Connection Description dialog box. 4. In the HyperTerminal terminal window, type AT+FCLASS=8 AT+VLS=7 ATDTxxxxxxx (for xxxxxxx substitute a telephone number) 48 5. Speak into the microphone to talk to the person on the other end of the line, and listen over the speaker. 6. Type +++ATH and press ENTER to hang up. 7. Type ATZ and press ENTER to reset the modem.

MT9234ZPX User Guide 55 Appendix C – Upgrading Your Modem Appendix C – Upgrading Your Modem Introduction Your modem is controlled by semi-permanent software, called firmware, which is stored in flash memory. Firmware is nonvolatile; that is, it remains stored in memory when the modem is turned off. However, it can be changed by either the manufacturer or the user as bugs are fixed or new features are added. Since the firmware in your modem is stored in flash memory, you can upgrade it yourself in a few minutes by using the following procedures. Upgrade Overview The upgrade procedure consists of the following steps, which are described in greater detail in the following sections. 1. Identify the model number and firmware version of your modem. 2. Identify the current version of the firmware at the Multi-Tech Web site. If your modem already has the current firmware, there is no need to upgrade it. 3. Download the upgrade file and the appropriate Flash Wizard for your modem. 4. Install the Flash Wizard and extract the firmware .HEX file from the file you downloaded. 5. Document and clear your stored parameters. 6. Upgrade the modem’s firmware using the .HEX file and the Flash Wizard. 7. Restore your parameters. Step 1: Identify the Modem Firmware You must know the model number and firmware version of your Multi-Tech modem to know whether or not you should upgrade it. 1. Run your favorite terminal program. If available, you can use HyperTerminal. 2. In the program’s terminal window, type AT&F. Even if you cannot see the AT&F command on your screen, be sure to type it completely, and then press ENTER. If the modem does not respond with OK, repeat the AT&F command. 3. Now type ATI, press ENTER, and record your results. The model number and firmware version should appear similar to that shown below. In the example below, the firmware version is 1.02d. Agere OCM v.92 MT9234ZPX-UPCI Internal Data/Fax Modem version 1.02d. Step 2: Identify the Current Firmware Version Identify the current version of your modem’s firmware at the Multi-Tech Web site. If your modem already has the current firmware, there is no need to upgrade it. 1. Using your favorite Web browser, go to http://www.multitech.com/en_US/SUPPORT/Updates/Firmware 2. Product Firmware – Select the product family to view firmware for product in that product line. Click on the down arrow and scrol down to Multimodem ZPX. 3. Look at the firmware version number for your modem. 4. If the firmware version number matches the firmware version number found in “Step 1: Identify the Modem Firmware,” your modem has the current firmware version, and does not need to be upgrade. 5. If the firmware version number is greater than the firmware version number found in “Step 1: Identify the Modem Firmware,” your modem has an older firmware version. Continue with “Step 3: Download the Upgrade File.” Warning: The first digit of the new firmware must match the first digit of the old firmware, or the modem may not work properly (e.g., if your current firmware version is 4.16, replace it only with 4.xx firmware, not 6.xx firmware). 56 Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide Appendix C – Upgrading your Modem Step 3: Download the Upgrade File 1. If you are not already at the MultiModem Firmware page of the Multi-Tech Web site, follow the procedure in “Step 2: Identify the Current Firmware.” 2. Download the upgrade file for your modem by clicking its name, and save the file in a temporary folder on your hard disk. 3. In the same section of the Web page, download the Flash Wizard utility by clicking it, and save it in the same folder. Alternately, install the Flash wizard from the MultiModem compact disc. Step 4: Extract the Upgrade Files 1. Install the Flash Wizard utility by double-clicking the Flash Wizard file name in Windows Explorer. 2. Extract the upgrade files by double-clicking the file name. The extracted files include a .HEX file, which contains the upgrade data, and a Readme file. 3. Copy the upgrade .HEX file into the Flash Wizard folder, which, in a default installation, is at C:\Program Files\MultiTech Systems\Flash Wizard\. Step 5: Document and Clear Your Stored Paramenters Before you flash your modem, you should record the parameters that are currently stored in it so you can reprogram it after flashing. After you have recorded them, send the AT&W1Z command to the the modem to clear the stored parameters. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Run your favorite terminal program. In the program’s terminal window, type AT&V and press ENTER to list your modem’s current parameters. Record your parameters by saving the screens and sending them to your printer. Type AT&W1Z and press ENTER to clear your stored parameters and reset your modem to factory default. Close the terminal program. Step 6: Upgrade the Modem’s Firmware Before you begin the following procedure, read the README.TXT file extracted from the upgrade archive file. Note the file name for the new firmware (example: ARQG125A.HEX). Also, if you are using Windows NT, you must disable Windows RAS and Microsoft Fax Service before upgrading the modem’s firmware. To disable RAS and your Fax service, Click Start | Settings | Control Panel, and then double-click Services. Select Remote Access Server, and then click the Startup button. Select Manual as the startup type, and then click OK. Do the same for any fax service. Close any other programs that might be accessing the modem’s Com Port. WARNING: Never install an older version of firmware over a newer version. Doing this WILL DESTROY THE FLASH PROM! If the flash PROM is destroyed, the modem must be sent in for repair. 1. Run Flash Wizard by double-clicking its icon or file name, or by selecting it from the Start menu. The program begins by identifying devices attached to your computer. 2. Select the modem to be upgraded, and then click Next to proceed. 3. Select the port to be upgraded from the Port list, select the appropriate .HEX file from the Hex File list, and then click Next to continue. Note: Do not use FLASHLDR.HEX. This file is used internally by Flash Wizard. 4. The Progress dialog box now displays the progress of the upgrade. Caution: Any disruption of the program during this stage of the upgrade can cause your modem to become inoperable. Wait for the Next button to become active before proceeding. 5. When the flash upgrade is complete, the message Programming Complete appears. Click Next to continue. 6. The Results dialog box appears next. Click Finish to exit Flash Wizard. Note: If you are using Windows NT, be certain to enable RAS and your fax service when the operating system restarts. Step 7: Restore Your Parameters Your modem has been upgrade. You can now open your terminal program to reprogram your modem parameters or to confirm the upgrade by typing ATI in the terminal window and pressing ENTER. Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234ZPX User Guide 57 Appendix D – Installing under Linux Appendix D – Installing in Linux Introduction This appendix explains how to verify that the Multitech MT9234ZPX-UPCI modem has been detected in Linux Operating System running kernel 2.6.xx. Assuming that the PCI card has been already installed in the system. Logon to the system as root. To check which kernel version the system is running, send the following command “uname -a” You should get a response like this: [root@armadillo ~]# uname -a Linux armadillo.net 2.6.18-8.el5 #1 SMP Thu Mar 15 19:57:35 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux This particular system is running kernel 2.6.18-8.el5. For Multitech MT9234ZPX modems, Linux will use a native driver for the PCI interface already contained in the kernel. Once the system detects the modem it will assign 2 new ports to the system. Due to the nature of the interface used, two com ports will be added, but only one com port will be use to access the modem (first port). If you use the second port, the modem will not respond to any AT command. To see how many ports the system has detected on boot. Send the following command: dmesg |grep -i tty You should get a response like this: [root@armadillo ~]# dmesg |grep -i tty serial8250: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A 00:0f: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A 0000:03:00.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xcdeffc00 (irq = 169) is a 16550A 0000:03:00.0: ttyS2 at MMIO 0xcdeffe00 (irq = 169) is a 16550A Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized The new ports detected and assigned to the card will be labeled as follow. The IRQ and the I/O address might be different in your system. 0000:03:00.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xcdeffc00 (irq = 169) is a 16550A 0000:03:00.0: ttyS2 at MMIO 0xcdeffe00 (irq = 169) is a 16550A Remember, accessing the modem, you need to always use the first port. To verify if the modem is operational, you can use the most common terminal emulation in Linux called minicom. Enter minicom -s 58 Multi-Tech Systems, Inc.
